    Hello!

    I bought Jackbox Party Pack 7 through my Microsoft account for desktop. Since purchasing this game, I have changed the email address which my account is under. That being said, when I go to install Jackbox Part Pack 7, the only option is to purchase it again. I have tried contacting people at Jackbox but since I did not purchase the game from them directly, they said that I would need to contact Microsoft. I have not been able to get any help and don't know what to do next.

    :)

    Cannot switch to my old gametag

    Well, maybe I dont tell exactly my problem. I try it with other words:

    I bought the game with my regular email adress. That ist the email adress I also use to login in my microsoft account and I still use this email adress.

    Somehow (and I dont know why it is so) I have now another gamertag but i still use the same email adress.

    Because of this, I cannot login in another way in my microsoft account.

    The game I bought (Minecraft) seems to be linked to my old gamertag.

    I hope that someone from microsoft can look in my account details and fix this problem, because it is not very cool to buy a game and than have no access to this game :(

    Greetings,

    Christoph

    Is there a way I can change my minecraft account's microsoft account

    if you cannot access your microsoft account and have 2fa active then they are right all is lost, and as the microsoft account is the account that minecraft migrated too you have now lost minecraft if you cannot access the microsoft account.
